Missing 17-year-old last seen in Puyallup. WSP issues Missing Indigenous Person Alert

Law enforcement officials are searching for a 17-year-old who reportedly ran away last month.

Allison Huffman is 5-foot-6 and about 133 pounds. She has blue eyes and strawberry-blonde hair. She has a nose piercing. She also has scars above each knee and one above her right eye.

Huffman was last seen near 1402 E. Main Ave. in Puyallup, according to the Washington State Patrol. She was reported as a runaway Nov. 4.

She left home voluntarily, according to the Pierce County Sheriff’s Department. Detectives are concerned for her safety because of her age and medical condition.

WSP issued a Missing Indigenous Person Alert. The alert system launched in July with the intent of finding and assisting Indigenous people who are in danger.

Anyone who sees Huffman is asked to call 911.
